...Long before the national media spotlight began to shine on every twist and turn of his life's journey, Barack Obama had this to say about himself: "Junkie. Pothead. That's where I'd been headed: the final, fatal role of the young would-be black man. . . . I got high [to] push questions of who I was out of my mind."

....In the book, Obama acknowledges that he used cocaine as a high school student but rejected heroin. "Pot had helped, and booze; maybe a little blow when you could afford it. Not smack, though," he says.

Gee, you quoted his book from several years ago, where he was speaking about his childhood. Wow, this is breaking news! Get a life. You guys elected George W cokehead TWICE, who also created the debt we're in. Is there an IQ test to get a BMW?
